Partial Class Getting Extra Designer Form

Gary Brown

Hi,

I have moved some of the implementation of a form into a second
file and enclosed it with "partial class ..." VS wants to give the
second file its own designer form. How do I prevent that and how
do I get rid of the second one?

Thanks,
Gary

I should have added that I started with a blank code file for the second
implementation file.

Not sure how to prevent VS to display the blank designer form, but you can
manually modify the project file for your partial class to include the
following node:
<DependentUpon> MyFormFileName. cs</DependentUpon>
(or vb) - this way when you open your project, the partial class appears
under your form, sumilar to Designer class. You will still need to open with
View-Code rather then double-clicking though.

If anyone knows how to let VS know that the new partial definition should
NOT have a separate (blank) designer, or at least how to define default
opening action on it as code view - would appreciate a lot.

partial classes and designer properties

by: Sebastian Sylvan | last post by:

Hey. I have two questions. First of all I'm using the Visual C# Express Beta. When you create a windows application it will automatically split the main form into two files using partial classes. In the solution explorer this is seen hierarchially as somthing like - MainForm.cs -> MainForm.Designer.cs

Breaking Forms in to partial classes

by: Rene | last post by:

VS 2005 uses the Partial Class & <form>.Designer.cs for its windows forms generated code. When upgrading from 2003 the project wizard did not break the form, it left it the old way. I would like to split them. Who the heck do you do that? Other than using the IDE and add a new Form, I was not able to insert the partial Form class in the nice hierarchical way the IDE does it. How do you do that? Thanks.

How To Show Partial Classes as a Hierarchy in Solution Explorer?

by: erich | last post by:

In VS2005, creating a new form creates the form class and a partial (frm*.designer.vb) class file and displays the partial class beneath the main form frm*.vb, which is great. However, when extracting the designer code elements from an existing form class into its own partial class, (or creating new ones) the partial class is displayed in the Solution Explorer under the Project name, that is, at the same level as the file from which it...

bindingsource in partial

by: pihentagy | last post by:

Hi all! Is it possible to have a bindingsource in a partial class? Well it is possible, but I have the following issues: - this.components is defined in the .designer.cs file. If I call my own initialization method before the GUI's one, I will not have this.components. If I call it after, it's too late, because I'd like to bind it to a GUI component - my IDE (#develop) doesn't display my own partial class as part of the Form. What...
